The Vrolijk Family

"Autumn is a second spring, when every leaf is a flower." ~Unknown

 

 

This is the Vrolijk family. What a bunch of good looking people! We had so much fun playing in the leaves at Rodman Hall here in St. Catharines. The colors were full, and the weather was chilly, yet perfect.

As you can see below, we had ourselves some fun and have some great photos to show for it! ;)

This is the second session I have had with the Grace family; the last time was a year ago in the summer. What a difference one year makes when you're little! This little boy is SOOOOO LOVED!


We had a great session- full of laughs... because I have proved again, that I have a problem mixing up the father/son names for this bunch. It's pretty embarrassing when you are calling the fathers name in a baby-voice while making duck calls. They're good about it though! (Thank goodness!)

I had a fun session with these cuties the other day during my mini-sessions. They were so much fun! (And absolutely beautiful dont you think?)

Mel and Sadiebug

"There is no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one." ~ Jill Churchill

 

When my best friend/adopted 'Mumsie' June passed away almost two years ago, I had no idea what to expect in the wake of my loss. I really struggled with the thought of life without her- I felt at a loss for the joy that she had brought into my life, and the life of our family. I felt alone. Little did I expect to find friendship in other loved ones that she left behind. Melanie is one of those cherished friends. Not only do we share the commonality of raising little girls, but also the love of our angel-June. What a blessing! It is one of those stories where when a door is closed, a window is open and you are given a beautiful view while you wait for that door to be fixed.

Mel is an amazing mom. Her little 'Sadiebug' is SO lucky! She couldn't possibly be loved any more, by anyone else in the world and that shines through in the following images. ♥

 "Having a place to go — is a home. Having someone to love — is a family. Having both — is a blessing." ~Donna Hedges

This is one of the sweetest families there is! These kids have the best parents going! (And I may also be saying that because we're friends... lol) Really though, they are a great family and we always enjoy any time spent in their company.

We had so much fun, despite the cooler weather. It was an amazing day for photos! (...and how about that mistletoe?!?)
